Configuring dial-out options
The terminal server has access to the MAX unit digital modems, and can be configured to
enable users on the local network to dial through the digital modems. To enable local dial-out,
you set the following parameters in Ethernet > Mod Config TServ Options:

How to use nonimmediate-modem dial-out
If you enable dial-out (not immediate modem), users can access a modem after connecting to
the MAX unit from a workstation by means of Telnet. For example:
Telnet max01
Once you establish the Telnet session, the user proceeds as follows:
MAX 6000/3000 Network Configuration Guide
Specifies
That the terminal server responds to BOOTP within SLIP sessions. A
user who initiates a SLIP session can then get an IP address from the
designated IP address pool via BOOTP. If the parameter is set to No,
the terminal server does not run BOOTP. Instead, the user is prompted
to accept an IP address at the start of the SLIP session.
Text message the MAX unit displays before the netmask field in the
SLIP session startup message. You can enter up to 64 characters. (IP
Netmask Msg does not apply unless you set SLIP Info to Advanced.)
Text the unit displays before the unit IP address field in the SLIP
session startup message. You can enter up to 64 characters. (IP
Gateway Addr Msg does not apply unless you set SLIP Info to
Advanced.)
That the MAX unit reports the SLIP user's IP address and the
Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU), or reports the SLIP user's IP
address, the MTU, the Netmask, and the Gateway to SLIP users.
Open a Ethernet > Mod Config > TServ Options subprofile.
Enable the use of the SLIP command:
